A Few Days in My Life | Amsterdam | Thinking About the Future

A Few Days in My Life | Living in Amsterdam | Thinking About Life & the Future
Hello loves,
I am taking you all through a few days in my life in Amsterdam! You might find that this video is unlike a lot of my past day in the life videos. I am not cooking as much in this video, sharing as many recipes, or even the products that love like I normally always do with you all. I wanted to film this with being as present in the moment and as raw as possible with you all. I get into some deep talks about what Max and I see for our futures together, as well as where we are currently in life right now! It has been such an amazing couple of months living in Europe. I love how my daily routine changes a bit when I am back home in Amsterdam versus when I am in Los Angeles. The change in pace here is so different, where I found myself waking up and working out a little later in the mornings than I normally do in LA, which I actually really loved! The mornings and days just felt a lot slower even though we were still working just as hard here as we would back in LA.
As you all know, I have expressed so much how I love being in Amsterdam. Max and I have been really taking intentional time to think about our future together now that we are a married couple, and where we see each other spending the most time together, and I can definitely say that Amsterdam holds a special place in our hearts. As some of you may have noticed, Nekohama has been really taking off here in Amsterdam, and we are so excited to see where that goes in the upcoming months here. I will definitely keep you all posted on what cafes and restaurants in Amsterdam where you can get some of our delicious Nekohama matcha!

As a fellow European who's lived in the US, I agree - Europe's "quality of life" is truly unique. Ready for the next chapter?

[@SanneVloet]

I agree!! SO ready for what the future holds ❤️

[@karenmariewagstaff5746]

As a European living in New York I always feel the same when spending time in Europe. On balance I would say there are pros and cons to either place. Perhaps a change from LA would do you both good?

[@audreylindsay]

maybe not forever @sanne maybe just for a while

[@audreylindsay]

@SanneVloet So happy for you too. You both look happy. Your husband seems to calm down, which makes me really happy to see. Cause so many people are just always running around and never feel they can settle. It looks like he feels like he can settle with you. Which is an amazing sign. I guess he really loves you. He is really happy with you. Sanne, I wish you the best! You really deserve it!

[@brendastevens9077]

So Happy to see your Pup is with you. Did he go to Italy too? He's quite the World Traveler!!😊💖💖💖

[@lauravalle3766]

The good news for you both are that you can work anywhere with your professions. ❤ I lived in Germany and the Netherlands for 8 years, and I always want to go back to stay. The quality of life is better including the work life balance. I also love how active you can be there. It’s not a normal part of life in the US where you have to find time to work out. You also save so much on drive time in Europe! 😅 My profession is harder to move back and forth but if you can, I’d say go for it! My friend who is Dutch and married to an American moved back recently and she is soooooo happy she did. ❤

[@SanneVloet]

We are very grateful for our professions and where we can work from almost anywhere! 🫶🏻

[@christinachic6589]

Let’s all move to Amsterdam! I’ve visited twice and I love it. It’s a cute city and everyone is so friendly :)

[@user-ql2ix7sp6f]

Dooooon’t, Amsterdam is SO hard with housing 🤣

Sanne, just from you talking about Amsterdam, I already love it. Enjoy it all!

[@karinavines1515]

My goodness me, honest volg and even your lovely dog seems happier in Amsterdam so do you and your husband 😊x

[@SanneVloet]

Awh thank you! We are very happy!

[@the_green_table]

You seem so much brighter in your Amsterdam vlogs ✨️✨️ great vlog as usual 💚

[@SanneVloet]

Awh thank you 🥰

[@audreylindsay]

haha I was not the only One that noticed it!

[@Kimten3000]

LA looks like the most soulless, hollowed out place. I would choose Amsterdam any day.

[@vamanacampbell6197]

Home is where the heart is... Go back when you're able... Good for the mind body and soul... Love and blessings ❤️🙏🏽🌞...

[@93V257]

I’m from Cali and have lived in Maastricht for just over a year, moving back home in a month. NL will always have a special place in my heart 🩵🩵

[@SanneVloet]

I love that! 🩷

[@chrisgray4239]

You look amazing in the white jacket Sanne, a move to Amsterdam sounds great, keep LA in your back pocket. Thanks for sharing today ❤

[@rosemarie6606]

I've lived in Amsterdam for my whole live. Recently, I started to doubt if it is still the best place for me and my familiy as I has become busier and more fast paced in the last years. But, your vlogs make me appreciate 'my' city more again. Thank you!

[@MsMimotta]

Spin classes are THE best workouts ever! I used to do Les Mills Spinning and let me tell you.. best 30 minutes of my life 😌

[@SanneVloet]

They are a killer!!

[@ShelbySweetLife]

Sanne, may I just say, your arms are looking soooo defined! Your hard work is paying off, girl! 💪🏻💕

[@SanneVloet]

Thank you so much!!

[@supergirlll]

I love Amsterdam. I went there for the first time last year in November (for work) and I loved it. I definitely want to go back again just for pleasure and not for work.

[@virginiaconway374]

Happiness is a choice, but don't lie to yourself while you do it. Amsterdam, for you, looks like Shangralaii. In the video, I see freedom of feeling. I assume you like to feel nature, and in Amsterdam, you do in more ways than one. I have heard you say no one gets out and walks in L.A...At any rate, Katsu looks like he was laughingly happy. I heard something the other day that I'd like to pass on. Marriage is not a contract; it's an ongoing negotiation. Love u 2!

[@audreylindsay]

"I see freedom of feeling. I assume you like to feel nature" I totally feel that

[@vamanacampbell6197]

Safe and wellbeing throughout with you and your dearest husband, travelling back to LA..."BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE ❤"🌞...

[@javiervll8077]

Hello Sanne!! 😀 Loved this vlog! 😊 I’ve always wanted to visit Amsterdam 🇳🇱, I love the architecture of the city and its canals; it is undoubtedly the Venice of the North!! 😀😀 Best regards!!! 🤗 🇪🇸❤️🇳🇱

[@SanneVloet]

Such a good way to describe it!

[@genevieveskehan9925]

What an amazing deep video. I really love and applaud you for putting this out there. I moved to the UK when I was 19 and lived there for 5 years. When I was there I felt the most free and relaxed I've probably ever felt in my life, but it's tricky because I am from the US. My family is here and there's a lot of work opportunities here. The older I get the more I weigh out if I should go back to where I feel most at ease or stay where theirs more opportunity and my family and foundation is. I feel lucky to have these choices, but that doesn't make them any easier.

[@audreylindsay]

Find out where you are the happiest, where you're purpose is at the moment. Is it family right now, or more work, or... ? :) Best Wishes

[@merlokiii]

It would be a great idea to move to the NL for so many reasons. Plus you are close to your family, which does a lot in terms of happiness (for me at least). I also want to move back to my country, despite I like living in the NL

[@SanneVloet]

So true! Family is so important!🫶🏻

[@oliviabrz6163]

You just wait for those rainy cold days in Europe! 😅I live in Lnd and can't wait to move to LA, mostly bc of the weather

[@soniaschuler41]

You are fortunate to have the resources (mental, physical, environmental, etc) to live like this

[@kikibot8524]

And yet she's completely blind to her own privilege..😢

[@cb97hyu]

Amsterdam is such a beautiful and calming country❤ Same as you go different places, I’ll go to LA next month for trip from Japan and I’m so excited to see how beautiful place it is! It’s my first visit a foreign country :)) Can’t wait!!

[@scsl33]

L

[@SanneVloet]

Yay that’s so exciting!! It is such a beautiful country.

[@VickyAdelia-bs2yu]

I'm an American, but can really attest how lovely life is in Europe(an countries) in general (I now live in a Scandinavian country) The culture, the pace of life, the quality of food, the fact that in general you can walk/bike everywhere, the great work-life balance and amazing health insurance structure, affordable healthcare, outdoor lifestyle, etc. etc. Do what your heart tells you Sanne, we (I) will always be your supporter (have been from day 1!) xoxo

[@SanneVloet]

Awh thank you so much!! xx

[@amyvanest1665]

I love ur vlogs so much! Thank u Sanne

[@SanneVloet]

Glad you like them!

[@eborth5427]

I’m just sitting trying to figure out where to go for a few days next week and was thinking New York or London but Amsterdam looks really nice too! I’ll check out your recommendations 🤩

[@alenkaarya]

It's a big decision for sure and you need to listen to you and your gut and of course your hubby but Netherlands is so so amazing. I know I'm partial but Europe is so much better than USA for living. Nevertheless I just love seeing you happy!

[@SanneVloet]

I totally agree to trust your gut! Thank you!

[@mamam9497]

Looove vlogs from Amsterdam!

[@irinakovacevic8495]

How did you fly with your golden retriver? We have one too and we are anxious to travel with him since big dogs cannot be with the owners during the flight in the most of the cases. I miss Amsterdam, I like it a lot!

[@maggiejean_nahas]

Much love from Nashville!!!❤❤❤

[@audreylindsay]

You look so good. I don't think you've ever looked this good. (maybe especially because you're happy? ;) Think it would be so good to spend the whole summer in amsterdam.

[@fatimak1042]

I so want Amsterdam and feel that vibe you share. Katsu my love ❤😊

[@ashajibril1004]

Just move to Canada, best of both worlds! Stay on the west coast - Vancouver

[@rahrahrain]

Curious, why did you speak English to the server at the end of the video? (Instead of Dutch) Loved this video and love Amsterdam. I would love to see more of NL and get your recommendations for other cities /towns, etc.

[@amandatankink51]

Since Amsterdam is so international, a lot of people that work there actually don’t speak Dutch! 😊

[@tlcasey]

I’ve always wanted to move from uk to USA but recently have learnt the quality of life there is not that great. I want healthy, active, outside in nature, great work life balance, laid back and 30 days of annual leave - I don’t think you get that.

[@melissa_97]

Question from a fellow Amsterdam-and-dog-lover 🤗: How did you find having a dog in this city? Sometimes I feel like it would be totally doable and I should just go for it and sometimes I'm like: no this is not the place to live with a dog. How did you experience it?

[@audreylindsay]

I can say that a dog needs a lot of Time, attention, and just always loves to be outside. I had a Dog in the City and always felt bad because I almost never felt like he was totally satisfied. And I wanted him to be so happy. I even thought about moving to the countryside (a garden or better a forest where he can run freely And Safe). A Dog is like family, like a child

[@manqiyang3690]

Visiting Amsterdam next week! Can’t wait to try the apply pie😊(btw if anyone have same traveling plan we may meet and say hi)

[@Lushline]

Let's just pay attention to it is not for free, the availibility is a product of permanent and kind contribution via taxes of our dear parents, ancestors, an finally, us currently hard-working and sharing that effort ;)

[@FuesunHa]

I was also this year in Amsterdam and it is a really really nice city. I will go next year again to the Netherlands but I want to visit also other cities like e.g. Rotterdam. I am so excited.

If I were you and I got pregnant, I would definitely not raise my child is the US if I had the option.

[@the_green_table]

I've watch an interview where they were talking about the educational system in the US and what are they trying to push to children its sad and scary, they also spoke about what countries are the best for educating you kids and by far is dubai, but to be honest I believe thay what's gonna save kids is not the schools but the time with parents after school and the values they plant in their children

[@verygood10]

The idea of LA is exciting but the reality is dreadful ( the cost of everything, the crimes, the insane policies, the traffic, etc) there are reasons why so many are leaving California...

Sanne, hi! My husband is Dutch and everything you said about Amsterdam resonates so much! We were there over the summer and it felt like such a welcomed reprieve from the grind we live in California, in all the ways you described. I am ready to pack our bags! He warns me that I haven’t experienced a Dutch winter yet, which is true and a fair point. Curious for your opinion - are winters truly that awful? 😊

[@user-xp3sl7ro8p]

Maybe compared to LA the winters here are 'awful', but really compared to other countries where it gets muchhhh colder it's really not that bad here don't worry haha. It barely even snows anymore lol, so the coldest it gets on average in the recent years is 0 degrees celcius.
